Hey @swistle thanks for reminding me to schedule a mammogram.

Peloton sent out notice today that they are raising the price of their membership fee by $5/month and the amount of absolute OUTRAGE I'm seeing over it is BANANAS. You spent $2K on a piece of exercise equipment and you're going to cancel over $5/month? GTFOH.

I was reading about the Charlie Javice story and thinking, “It’s like she saw what Elizabeth Holmes did and said Hold My Beer.” This is from her Wikipedia entry.

I heard my first IRL 6-7 reference today. Pretty sure that means it’s over.

I just worked 4 hours as a timer at a swim meet. I fear I will wake up in the dark and hear the screaming of the children for days. 🙉

Last Square Day for 91 years! Don’t forget to mark it! #squareday

Right-wing FB friend from high school just announced she’s canceling her Disney+ account. Disney is gonna get whiplash trying to appease both sides, aren’t they?

One thing we learned from the Jimmy Kimmel fiasco is that my husband & I were BOTH subscribed to Disney+. On the one hand, we are big dummies but on the other hand we got to DOUBLE cancel our subscriptions. Suck it twice, Disney!

Bringing joy to all.

Don't think I've ever felt this embarrassed to be an American. There's shame and anger too. But mostly embarrassment. We're the laughingstock of the developed world. And we should be.

women being blamed for autism is very 2025 and also very 1692

This Tylenol bullshit is INFURIATING.

Thinking of you, @katrinaravioli.bsky.social.

Well, I think we have confirmed that the revolution will not be televised

FACT. 😂

I’m picturing Don Jr in a flight suit standing in front of a “Mission Accomplished” banner.

I helped my 16yo pre-register to vote at his high school this morning. Is someone cutting onions? 😢

live your life so that when you die everyone talks about how hot you were and not how you were a hateful bigot

Just saw someone post "Democracy Dies in Whiteness." Amazing truth. Encapsulates America. Should be @washingtonpost.com new motto.

I am writing GOTV postcards and just came across a voter whose name is Candace Cameron.

"The media" is not a monolith. There are publications and organizations that are doing excellent work in *informing the public*, helping communities remain connected, and seeking to be a watchdog over public power. It is important to identify, support and share these media organs.

Yesterday’s NYT crossword was a quick solve but a lot of fun. And the image of an anvil falling on Wile E. Coyote’s head? Perfection. Well done, Daniel Grinberg. @thecrosstalkpod.bsky.social

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

The only thing that can move faster than the speed of light is darkness. That’s how it got there before the light did.

8th grade fieldtrip. ⚾️

This summer we went to this restaurant & it piqued my interest in the Iran Contra affair so I listened to a podcast series about it. Now this. It’s 1986 all over again! www.elavion.net/history

I signed my 13yo up for a diving class and she’s BY FAR the oldest kid in the class. I’m never going to hear the end of this, am I? 😖

“Someone is staring at you in Personal Growth.”

if i had the opportunity to ask a question of anyone in the administration, given this "war in chicago" messaging, i would ask them how many americans the president intends to kill in his war

Ain’t no drama like a PTA drama. 🫨

RFK Jr.: "This is crazy talk! You're making stuff up!" RFK Jr.: "You're making things up to scare people, and it's a lie!" Sen. Hassan: "Every time you make an accusation, it's kind of a confession, Mr. Kennedy." We couldn't say it better. 🎤💥

Hey friends, Defend Public Health has a new campaign if you’d like to join in. Write your elected reps about ensuring that COVID19 vaccines are available this Fall!

I took the kids to see Jaws in the theater today. Fifty years later the film still holds up and Martin Brody’s aviator glasses are back in style.

ChatGPT just told me that "Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is not currently serving as a government secretary or holding any official public office" so that's great. 🫠

I believe most Americans want access to COVID vaccines and want smart people in charge at HHS. Use your voice! www.standupforscience.net/rfk-impeachm...

This sounds like something my kids would say when competing to be The Favorite Child.

If a regular person can do this in spare time, what could a journalist backed by a newsroom with proper editors and other resources do?

Boeing C-suite=Republican Party leadership Boeing workers=The American people Wake up, Senator. You’re so close to getting it.

I don’t live anywhere near NYC and I want to vote for this guy.

It’s real nasty work to spend months yelling “Do something! Break the rules we don’t care, facism is happening” to then start crying on the internet that you don’t like how California is USING A DEMOCRATIC PROCESS, to RESPOND TO FACISM INITIATED by Trump and Texas Republicans. It’s unserious.

Zoom in.

Two of my children are fans of blind box cuteness (they love Sonny Angels) but I am so thankful they are not into this Labubu craziness. They think they’re ugly & I think they are a Monchhichi ripoff. Finally, we agree on something!

For the first time ever* I have reached my yearly OOP maximum.

Fuck yeah, DC. ✊

I’ve only watched 4 shows in the last few months and THREE of them have had Icelandic actor Ólafur Darri Ólafsson in the cast. Somebody Somewhere, Your Friends & Neighbors, and Severance. This guy is everywhere! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%93l...

I'm writing an honest self-help book that promotes sure-fire success strategies like genetics, generational wealth, being a white man, and luck.
